#MorningPrayer When we are beset, Lord, by turmoil within and without, buffeted by the storms around us and driven by fears inside us, reassure us of your presence with us and of your love for us, of your power and your peace, that we may be drawn by hope, and sustained by grace.

“The Librarians is ultimately a warning. It shows how quickly a political movement, convinced of its own righteousness, can begin using public institutions—libraries, school boards, and entire school systems—to silence dissent and impose its worldview on the next generation.”

#MorningPrayer Give us, Lord, the faith and the courage to offer to you all that we are, and all that we have, that your will may be done in us and through us. Let your grace inspire us, and your wisdom guide us, to share your love with all around us, both strangers and friends.

I know this day is not top of mind for everyone anymore, but I lived really close to the World Trade Center when it happened. So it's always going to be pretty fresh, for me. Praying for the first responders who now have cancer, just because they were trying to help. #photography #wtc #jerseycity
